Ciress is a world that runs on magic, and those with the most magic run the world. Genevieve Villard was in line to become a great leader, but during her Rite of Ascension something went horribly wrong. Her sister Giselle, a flibbertigibbet society girl, was conferred not only the power that was rightly Genevieve’s but that of every other Guild Master on Ciress. Now Giselle must come to terms with being the magical protector of her entire planet – if the Guild Masters let her live that long. Vibrant color and lush detail brings the magic of MYSTIC to life each month, as Giselle learns to live with her strange new power and the responsibility that goes with it.
